Dave Danner Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 The Verdienstkreuz in Gold was a Prussian decoration established in 1912. It was mainly for civil servants. Here is an example from Helmut Weitze's catalog: And a link so hopefully Weitze won't mind using his image: https://www.weitze.n...ld__171873.html The "50" was a button attached to the ring, indicating it was awarded for 50 years' service. Here is an example of a "50" device on the Prussian General Honor Decoration. This came from Straube's website.
